Hi Aqua

This the first time I’ve accessed this site through the recommendation of a dear friend and having read what you’ve written, I can fully relate to how you feel. Don’t change yourself or your ways as that is unique quality you alone possess. Some of us are blessed with such sincerity, kindness and warmth and its only a matter of time that someone who is just as sincere, kind, caring and warm will see that quality within you. A good friend of mine once told me ‘people that gossip about you, obviously find you interesting, and that’s their way of expressing their interests’. Sometimes, if not a majority of the times, its your own flesh and blood that are mean spirited and create frictions by spreading rumours, which really brings your emotional and mental state of mind to hit rock bottom. If you however, put yourself in their shoes, can you see them cheering you up or making you laugh or guiding you in any form, shape or way to encourage you to free yourself from that situation or make you feel significant? Unfortunately not all people wear their heart on their sleeve. You’re an amazing person and only another amazing person can see you for the real you. Inner peace is within you. The strength to overcome these issues is already embedded in you and when the right time approaches you will be surprised at yourself, believe me. I’ve gone through situations upon situations where I’ve hit rock bottom and felt suffocated when trying to get back on my feet and you know what?! the only person that gave me that strength and courage to be able to rise above all that was ME. Be strong, be true to yourself and the only person that needs to be made to feel significant is YOU. I don’t know if what I’m about to suggest will benefit you at all, but one of my remedies to overcome my anger and pain is writing poems about my feelings. I find it therapeutic and it also helps me to relax. I will strongly suggest to you however, that in order to feel good within yourself, get rid of the negative people in your life and focus on the ones that wont push you when you’re already down. Have positive people in your life.

With love
